Friday night we decided at the last minute to take my in-law's boat out on Mountain Island Lake with our friends Kendra and Scott. We love these guys...not only are they great friends but we have been co-leading a small group (called Blocs @ our church) since the fall. Kendra and Scott are expecting a little girl in September...we are sad that we won't be here for her birth but are so excited for them and this perfect little blessing. We always have a blast with K & S!
Saturday morning a group of girls met up at a local strawberry farm for the first pick of the season. We made sure to get there early so we got all the good ones...and good ones they were. We hope to do it again in May! It was a blast.
I was one tired girl after all the pickin'...so I made sure to have a low key and restful afternoon before the fun-filled evening. Daniel's work hosts an annual fundraising gala each year. This is our second year going and it is so fun! Its fun to get dressed up and mingle with lots of people...and of course, people watch, my personal favorite. We had a great time together.
I feel a deeper, more insightful blog post coming on...one that will show a little more of where things are at with me as we prepare to depart for Africa in the coming months. As I mull thoughts and feelings around in my heart and mind, I wish for some extra time in the day to write and express myself more meaningful on my blog...time just runs out too fast. I am counting down the days for school to come to an end (21 school days left) and to have some extra time in preparing my heart and mind for the upcoming transition in life...stay tuned!
